You will never guess what this helps with!

Hey !
This month I’ve been talking a lot about building more energy into your life – the kind of energy that helps you power through your days feeling great!
But there’s one way to get more energy I have to bring up because I see it at work EVERY single day.
It’s the people you surround yourself with (in-person or virtually).
Having a strong support system can truly be a gamechanger in your success.
Because not only do you get encouragement and support, but you’re able to give it to others … and that’s incredibly rewarding!
I wouldn’t be where I am today without my wonderful husband, our families and our fab friends!
They support me even when I have a new, crazy idea. They help me work through things when I'm down. They give me advice when I ask for it. They are always in my corner and I don't know what I would do without them.
I’ve got some tips on setting yourself up with a GREAT support network, but first …
Here are just a few benefits of having a strong support network:
- It helps you cope with stress better
- It helps improve mental health
- It can make you more confident
- It helps you stick with your healthy habits
- It cuts your risk of heart disease, including lowering your blood pressure
- Plus, it’s a great way to make friends, share some laughs, and have fun!
Pretty important stuff. A lot of people underestimate the power of your inner circle.
If you’re looking to expand your support network, I’ve got a few tips that can help!
- Join a fitness/wellness center (YAY...we can actually do this again!)
- Join an online fitness/wellness group. If you’re not a member of ours yet, you can join us for Pilates on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 7 a.m. Just email me for more info.
- Volunteer. Pick something you care about and find a way to get involved. You’ll meet like-minded people.
Committed to Your Success,
Sharon Morrison
